DALLAS, June 16, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Permex Petroleum Corporation (CSE: OIL) (OTCQB: OILCF) (FSE: 75P0) (“Permex” or the “Company“), is pleased to announce the extension of its early warrant exercise program (the “Program”), as initially announced by the Company in its news release dated May 18, 2023 (the “Initial News Release”).

The Program was announced with the intention to encourage the exercise of up to 1,015,869 unlisted common share purchase warrants of the Company (the “Eligible Warrants”). Pursuant to the Program, the Company amended the exercise price of the outstanding Eligible Warrants to USD$2.86 per Eligible Warrant, from May 18, 2023, at 9:00 a.m. (Vancouver time) until June 16, 2023 at 5:00 p.m. (Vancouver time). The Company now wishes to extend the Program until June 30, 2023 at 5:00 p.m. (the “Extended Exercise Deadline”).

As part of the Program, the Company will also offer, to each holder of Eligible Warrants (the “Warrant Holders”) who exercises any Eligible Warrants until the Extended Exercise Deadline, the issuance of one additional common share purchase warrant for each such exercised Eligible Warrant (each, an “Incentive Warrant”). Each Incentive Warrant entitles the Warrant Holder to purchase one common share of the Company (each, a “Share”) for a period of 5 years from the date of issuance, at a price of USD$4.50 per Share. The Company may also issue pre-funded common share purchase warrants (each, a “Pre-Funded Warrant”) in lieu of Shares, upon the exercise of Eligible Warrants, to certain Warrant Holders. Each Pre-Funded Warrant will allow the holder thereof to acquire one Share at a nominal exercise price of USD$0.01 and will not expire.

The Eligible Warrants which remain unexercised following the completion of the Extended Early Deadline will continue to be exercisable, on the terms existing immediately prior to the implementation of the Program, and no further Incentive Warrants will be granted on the exercise of the Eligible Warrants following the Extended Exercise Deadline.

For additional information on the Program, please refer to the Initial News Release.

The Incentive Warrants, and any securities issuable on the exercise thereof, will be subject to a four-month hold period from the date of issuance pursuant to applicable Canadian securities laws, in addition to such other restrictions as may apply under applicable securities laws of jurisdictions outside of Canada. None of the securities issued in connection with the Program will be registered upon issuance under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act“), and none of them may be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the 1933 Act. The Company has agreed to file a registration statement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission to register the Shares within 30 days of the end of the Extended Exercise Deadline. This news release shall not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy nor shall there be any sale of the securities in any state where such offer, solicitation, or sale would be unlawful.

DALLAS, Feb. 15, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Permex Petroleum Corporation (CSE: OIL) (OTCQB: OILCF) (FSE: 75P) (“Permex” or the “Company”), an independent energy company engaged in the acquisition, exploration, development, and production of oil and natural gas properties on private, state and federal land in the United States, today issued a letter to shareholders from its President & CEO, Mehran Ehsan.

Dear Fellow Shareholders:

Building upon the strong foundation laid in prior years, our team continued to advance our evolving position in the North American oil and gas market during 2022, executing our strategy to add sustainable marginal production through low risk, low cost recompletions while preparing for drilling programs for continued growth.

Within our current portfolio of 78 oil and gas wells, our near-term focus remains on recompletions and stimulations of approximately 30 wells that we believe have the potential in coming online at an average of 5 to 10 barrels of oil equivalent per day (BOEPD). Across our properties in west Texas and southeast New Mexico, we successfully recompleted seven wells in 2022 that have collectively stabilized at a rate of 71 BOEPD.

In January 2022, we began the pilot re-entry on the West Henshaw well #15-3 in New Mexico. The recompletion was successful, came online at an initial rate of 30 barrels of oil per day (BOPD), and has stabilized at 15 BOPD. We believe production rates from this mature, long-life well will continue with less than 10% decline year over year.

We also successfully recompleted the West Henshaw well #6-10 in the first half of 2022 with production coming online at an initial rate of 15 BOPD and stabilizing at 10 BOPD, a rate which we also believe can continue with less than 10% decline year over year.

The Railroad Commission of Texas approved our permit application for drilling on our flagship property in Martin County, Texas, in August 2022, reviewing and approving our request for well development.

Also in 2022, we continued our re-entry and stimulation program on our Henshaw Premier Unit and Oxy Yates properties situated in Eddy County, New Mexico. The re-entry and stimulations involved targeting the Grayburg formation in the Henshaw well numbers 107, 2L, 3B, while targeting the Yates formation in Oxy yates 14-3 well. We also recompleted the Mabee Breedlove Clearfork Unit #12 on our Breedlove field within the Clearfork formation located in Martin County. The recompletions were successful, came online at a combined initial production rate of 50 BOPD, and have stabilized at a rate of 35 BOPD. In addition to the re-entry and stimulation of the wells, we have begun an extensive enhanced oil recovery study on the Clearfork formation for our Martin County asset. This includes a review of all injection wells, downhole pressure, and communication between injectors and receiving wells.

In August, we commenced drilling our Martin County flagship property – the 7,780 gross acre Breedlove oilfield in September 2022 with two initial wells permitted. In November, we announced the successful completion of the first phase of drilling on our Eoff PPC#3 well which is the formation test on a vertical basis. We achieved a target depth of 8,100 ft (2468 meters) with the casing run to total depth. It is worth noting that the hole is pre cased with 8 5/8 casing which prepares the wellbore for lateral drilling and converting it to a horizontal well. The electric wireline logging sequence of the wellbore was also completed, and we believe the results to be positive and favorable as all indications from the drilling show multiple zones which allows us to proceed with the next steps of perforation, conversion, and completion.

We believe that there is significant value to be created by drilling the identified undeveloped opportunities on our properties in conjunction with the stimulation and rework of our shut-in wells. While our near-term plans are focused on drilling wells on our existing 11,700 acres to develop the potential contained therein, our long-term plans also include continuing to evaluate acquisition and leasing opportunities that can earn attractive rates of return on capital employed.

Looking at our financial position, we closed a $7.5 million brokered private placement in the first half of 2022 enabled us to considerably strengthen our balance sheet and ending us to end the fiscal year with $3.3 million in cash and cash equivalents, up more than tenfold year-over-year.

Turning to the broader markets, oil prices began rallying off their lows at year end, after declining for much of the second half of 2022, in part due to OPEC+ production cuts that began in November. Importantly, OPEC+ pledged to continue to support the market at a recent meeting in early February, with producers reconfirming their commitment to cut production by 2 million barrels per day (BPD) through the remainder of 2023. While fears of global recession remain a drag on prices, a potential rebound in Chinese demand could further support an upward trajectory on prices moving forward.

Finally, we further strengthened our team in 2022 with great additions to both our management and board. On the management side, we welcomed Greg Montgomery as our new Chief Financial Officer in May. Greg has served on our board since 2020 and provided our leadership team with invaluable guidance. In addition to his existing knowledge of Permex’s operations, he has vast experience in the oil and gas industry, including prior CFO and management roles with public companies. This makes Greg uniquely qualified to lead our financial strategy. In October, we also welcomed Melissa Folz P.E. as the newest member of our board. Melissa brings an extensive background from the oil and gas industry, and I believe she will contribute meaningfully to our strategic plans and growth as an organization.

Looking ahead, we are focused on the drilling and development of our unique asset base while redeploying the expected strong cash flow from completed wells back into further drilling and development programs. Additionally, we continue to evaluate acquisition opportunities of undervalued, low-risk opportunities that support building a strong portfolio with strategic development upside.

Thank you to all our shareholders, partners, and staff for your support on our journey. As we continue to work diligently to execute on our methodical approach to sustainable, long-term growth, I am confident that Permex will thrive in the years ahead.

On Behalf of your Permex Team,

Mehran Ehsan
